For security, reasons, you can leave out putting the ",passwd=mypass" bit
and it will ask you passwd on the fly when you actually run the command.
Otherwise, sensitive passwords are/can be stored in the bash history.
Also if you haven't created a folder under mnt to mount it, do so
eg. mkdir /mnt/windowsbox
